The most affordable mountain bike model with 1×12 gearing. The Author Kinetic is built on an aluminium frame with internal routing. The RST BLAZE fork offers a wide range of adjustment according to rider weight and riding style. The fork is finished in the bikes design, adding to its premium look. Gear changes are handled by the reliable, durable Shimano Deore groupset, here in a 1×12-speed version. Braking is provided by proven hydraulic disc brakes Tektro TR160. The wheels are built with Authors own Xenon rims and quality branded Vittoria Barzo tyres. The rest of the build consists of Authors own components. Of course, the frame and fork have mounting points for a kickstand, mudguards and a rack. A well-built bike with functional, durable components at a reasonable price – thats the Author Kinetic, which doesnt hide its sporty spirit.
